In October, Twitter laid off 350 employees—mostly in ad sales and marketing—and shuttered its offices in Germany and the Netherlands. Last year, the company let go another 300 employees. “The current feeling among those close to the company is that Twitter is simply too bloated, and pays too much in stock-based compensation for a company that’s still not profitable,” Recode reported.
